Tortola, British Virgin Islands, October 24, 2011 – The 22nd annual Cedar International School Costume Party and Parade will take place on Saturday October 29 at Nanny Cay beach. Organised by the Cedar students, parents and faculty as part of the school’s fundraising activities, the community event will run from 3 – 6pm with the costume parade starting at 4.15pm.
“We are really looking forward to welcoming families and children of all ages,” said Jaeda Wooldridge, Cedar International School development director and event organiser. “This party seems to draw more and more people each year and, as a community school, we are delighted to host such a socially popular event. The parade is a particularly big crowd-pleaser as people love to dress up, prizes or no prizes, and I am always amazed at how much effort goes into the costumes.”
Over the last two decades, the costume parade has attracted and challenged scores of participants to explore their imagination and dress up to try and win prizes in an array of categories. This year, children of all ages up to 18 years can enter to be judged the Most Scary, Most Original, Prettiest, Funniest, Best Cartoon Character / Super Hero and Best Group (of 3 or more).
“We’ve also got some exciting new attractions this year,” said Jaeda. “Our posters list just a sampler of the activities on offer and as I am presented with new ideas everyday, I am sure there will be something for everyone!”
A fortune teller’s tent, children’s book stall and ‘eat-a-donut-off-a-string’ stall are some of the planned additions to the day’s family oriented activities. Other booths and stalls at the party include face painting, a bouncy castle, haunted house, toy stall, lucky dip and more. Food and drinks will also be on sale.
The cost of entry is $1, with an additional $1 registration fee for those taking part in the parade. All the proceeds generated on the day will go towards the continued growth and development of Cedar International School with a percentage donated to Breast Cancer Awareness.
